Crooklyn

This is such a great family film. And it isn't sugar coated. It portrays your typical American family squabbling and bickering while trying to hold things together emotionally and financially.
The film reminds you of the importance of family and community as well as how fragile life and situations can be.
A bittersweet movie that will have you reaching for the tissue.

For me, this was the first Cohen Brothers film I saw. In no questionable way, it transformed me into a lifetime fan. And, even though it was made over 20 years ago, it remains one of the funniest films I've ever seen.

I enjoyed this movie and although it's not one of M. Night Shamalayan's best, it has what I would dare to say is one of the best suspense scenes in cinema. That's a big accomplishment.

Night Shamalayan's best, it has what I would dare to say is one of the best suspense scenes in cinema. That's a big accomplishment. It's the scene where Joaquin Pheonix's character is watching tv in the closet. I won't ruin it for you, just watch it.

I'm a sci fi fan, and a Tom Cruise anti fan, so you can see why I'm torn about recommending this movie. On the 'nay' side there's:
1. Tom Cruise
2. Dakota Fanning
3. New Jersey (i got parasites from drinking the water)

1. Tom Cruise
2. Dakota Fanning
3. New Jersey (i got parasites from drinking the water)
On the 'yay' side there's:
1. Tom Cruise's son hates him in the movie. HAHAHAHAHAHA!
2. Aliens. cool.
3. New Jersey (it has its charm)
4. Special Effects of the apocalyptic kind
So you see, the 'yays' out number the 'nays'. Watch on.

Boy does the sh*t really hit the fan in this one! I don't want to spoil it, but its quite disturbing. (Also starring Paul Dano of Little Miss Sunshine and There Will be Blood)

If you like indie dysfunctional family comedies (like Little Miss Sunshine) you'll really enjoy this one. Slums is funnier and edgier and doesn't give you the sugary optimism of Little Miss Sunshine.

I'll bet you've never heard of this movie! It was one of 2005's most critically acclaimed films, and won the Camera D'or for Best First Film at Cannes.

Say if Diablo Cody had not only written Juno, but directed and starred in it as well, you'd be coming close to Me and You and Everyone We Know territory. Miranda July, who wrote, directed and stars as Christine, who falls in love with Richard (John Hawkes), a divorcing father and shoe salesman.
How do hopeless people fall in love when they're hopeless? Watch this and find out. It's quietly confident, sunny, sweet and quirky, much in the vein of Juno but without the insanely hip dialogue. It's sweet central love story is tempered by some very audacious moments involving sex, but it's got so much charm it's hardly offensive enough to matter.
Oh and ))<>((.

This movie is a psychological thriller about a wealthy, corporate type who is given an unusual gift by his brother (Sean Penn). The gift is an exclusive kind of real life, real time game for high powered richies. However things go wrong and Douglas (and the audience) can't tell what's a part of the game and what isn't.
This is a great psychological thriller from the director that gave us Seven.

Film noir set in a rural part of the country and the hero is a very pregnant, tough-as-nails cop. Who else but the Coen Brothers could come up with something like this?
I grew up pretty close to North Dakota, just over the border in Saskatchewan. So much about Fargo hit home for me when I first saw it. Saskatchewan winters are just like this, and while the accents where I come from aren't quite as distinctive, they're still very similar.
